EXAMPLES Examples will be described below with reference to FIGS.

1 to 8 are views showing an embodiment of a word processor to which the text editing apparatus of the present invention is applied.

First, the structure will be described.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a main part of the word processor 1. In this figure, the word processor 1 is composed of a CPU 2, an input unit 3, a display unit 4, a document editing unit 5, a document memory 6, a program RAM 7, a dictionary memory 8, a replacement processing unit 9 and a replacement data memory 10.

CPU (Central Processing Unit) 2
Is a dictionary that controls each part in the word processor 1 according to a key input control program, a document editing process program, a kana-kanji conversion process program, etc. stored in the program RAM 7 and corresponds to a reading character string keyed in from the input part 3. Control of read processing of data from the dictionary memory 8, display processing of read dictionary data and edited document data on the display unit 4, and edit processing of document data input from the input unit 3 in the document editing unit 5. , When itemized sentences are inserted or deleted in this edited document,
It controls the item number replacement processing in the replacement processing unit 9 described later.

The input unit 3 is composed of a keyboard, a mouse, etc. on which kana keys, numerical keys, various function keys and the like are arranged, and outputs document data keyed by an operator and various key input instructions to the CPU 2.

The display unit 4 is a CRT (Cathode Ray Tube).
And display data such as dictionary data input from the CPU 2 and document data being edited.

The document editing unit 5 executes the editing process of the document data according to the instruction input from the CPU 2, and transfers the editing result to the document memory 6.

The document memory 6 stores document data created by the user. The program RAM 7 is a key input control program executed by the CPU 2,
The document editing processing program, the kana-kanji conversion processing program, the item number changing processing, and the like are stored.

The dictionary memory 8 stores dictionary data necessary for converting a kana input character string into kanji when the CPU 2 performs kana-kanji conversion processing or the like.

The substitution processing unit 9 executes an item number substitution process, which will be described later, and corrects a deviation of the item number when a sentence added with the item number is inserted or deleted by the document editing process. This is performed using the replacement data memory 10.

The replacement data memory 10 forms a memory area for storing the double number data and the change difference data when the replacement processing section 9 executes the item number changing process.

Next, the operation will be described.

First, as shown in FIG. 2, the word processor 1 edits a sentence to which item numbers (.about.) Are added, and the sentence data is stored in the document memory 6. For this sentence data, As shown in FIG. 3, when the additional sentence (item number) indicated by a in the figure is inserted, the sentence of the item number indicated by b in the figure is shifted.

In the word processor of this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, when the original item number is shifted due to the insertion of the item-based text, this item number shift is automatically replaced and corrected. In order to instruct the item number substituting function, for example, as shown in FIG. 4, the menu as “order change” is displayed on the pull-down menu of “Replace” of the title menu item. it's shown.

Therefore, the item number replacement function is shown in FIG.
It is activated by clicking "Replace" of the title menu item shown in 1) with a mouse operation to display a pull-down menu and clicking the order change menu with a mouse operation.

As described above, when the item number replacement function is activated by the menu operation, the item number replacement process is executed by the replacement processing unit 9. This item number replacement processing will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG.

In FIG. 5, first, the double number of the item number is checked from the head position of the item-based text data,
That is, it is determined whether or not there are two same item numbers (steps S1 and S2). If there is a duplication number, the duplication number is stored in the replacement data memory 10 (step S3). For example, in the case of FIG. 3, first, “” is stored in the substitution data memory 10 as the duplication item number.

Next, the position of the text data to which the dubli number is added first from the start position of the text data is searched (step S4), and when the position of the first dub number is found, the next dub number from the searched position. Is searched for (step S5). When the position of the next double number is found, the number of item numbers between the position of the first double number and the position of the next double number is checked (step S
6). Then, the number of checked item numbers is "1"
Replaced data memory 1 with "added" as "change difference"
It is stored in 0 (step S7).

That is, in the case of the text data shown in FIG. 3, the first double number and the next double number are "".
Is searched for, and the number of item numbers between the duplicate numbers is “1”, the change difference is “1 + 1 = 2”.

Next, the double number at the second double number search position is positively corrected by the change difference (step S8). That is, in the case of the text data shown in FIG. 3, the change difference “2” is added to the second dubly number, and the item number is replaced from “” to “” as shown in FIG. It

Next, the presence / absence and position of the next same dub number are searched (steps S9 and S10). If they do not exist, the process returns to step S1. To correct (Step S1
1), the process returns to step S9.

As described above, by repeatedly executing the processing of steps S1 to S11, the occurrence of the dubly number when the itemized text is inserted,
Each dubly item number is corrected positively, and the item number order is corrected.

Further, if the double number is not detected in the above step S2, steps S12 and S1.
In 3, the presence or absence of an item number missing from the beginning position of the text data is checked. If there is no missing number, this process is terminated, and if there is a missing number, the number of the missing numbers is checked (step S14), and the number of checked missing numbers is taken as the "change difference" to replace data memory 10 (Step S15).

Then, the presence or absence and position of the item number next to the retrieved missing number are retrieved (steps S16, S1).
7) If there is no next item number, the above step S12
When the next item number is present, the item number is subtracted and corrected by the change difference (step S18), and the process returns to step S16.

By executing the processes of steps S12 to S18 described above, for example, as shown in FIG. 7, when the sentence of the item number "," is deleted, the item number "" and the item number "" are deleted. Since the number of item numbers between and is “3”, the change difference is set to “3-1 = 2”, and the part of the item number “,” is subtracted by the change difference “2”, Replaced with ",".

In the above embodiment, the case where the change difference is "2" or more is shown. However, depending on the way of inserting the item-based sentence, as shown in FIG.
Since the change difference is set as "1", the item number is definitely replaced.

Further, even when there are a large number of insertions or deletions of item-based sentences at a plurality of places, it is possible to surely re-edit the item number order by using the item number replacement processing of the present invention. Of course.

As described above, in the word processor 1 of the present embodiment, when an item-based sentence is inserted or deleted, when "Change order" is selected from the pull-down menu of "Replace" on the title menu and clicked, The replacement processing unit 9 searches for a double number or missing number of the item number, and in the case of insertion, a positive change difference is set and the item number is added and corrected. In the case of deletion, a negative change difference is set. The item number is subtracted and corrected.

Therefore, the user is free from the complicated operation for changing the item number and can easily perform the re-editing process of the item number.

As a result, the document editing function of the document editing device such as a word processor can be improved.

[0039]

According to the present invention, the user can be freed from the troublesome operation for changing the item number associated with the insertion or deletion of the item-based text, and the item number re-editing process can be easily performed. You can As a result, the document editing function of the document editing device such as a word processor can be improved.
